“Breathe”

Breathe

September evening /

breathes in the day’s last embers, /

breathes out its lost dreams

Whispering secrets, /

the dying sunflower /

to the living one.

Haiku to you Thursday “Raspberry”

Raspberries

Collected at dusk, /

raspberries in an old cap, /

makeshift evening food.

“Latte-dah”

Latte-dah

Summer is over, so Starbucks declares, /

bringing forth their fall pumpkin wares. /

Temperatures still roiling across the US. /

When they will break is anybody’s guess. /

Hurricanes hit California and other coasts, /

but Iced Pumpkin Cream Chai Latte Starbucks boasts. /

It may be 69 days until Halloween /

but this declaration seems self-serving and a bit obscene.

Haiku to you Thursday: “Life”

Life

Each life is lived /

in the uncertainty of /

the hour of its death.

Haiku to you Thursday: “Squirrel”

Squirrel

A feast of old bread /

the squirrel appreciates, /

wary as I watch.

Rain hits the petals /

while anthers still beckon bees. /

The lily endures.

Haiku to you Thursday: “Space”

Space

Physical and mental,

bruised with color, words, and shapes,

walls contour your space.
